>>The story: client needs, for their client, fast way to web-ify a current VFP app. Thinking creatively, we put it on a terminal server and have the users use IE to connect, and via the msrdp ts control get a nice box of a VFP app inside their browser. We even quickly change the form appearance to _look_ like a website. We are proud of ourselves.

I too was thinking the same thing. All they need is to run the app over the internet. So why should it run in a browser? Why not in its own TS session ?
